Final Whistle






This weekend was the last weekend of Tweetsie's season. Brrrr! It was FREEZING! Literally. It actually snowed Saturday morning and we had to wait until after lunch to go into the park it was so cold/windy/snowy. But we had a great time and tried to stay warm and we visited the very cozy fudge shop SEVERAL times throughout the afternoon. ;) Sunday morning we went out in Granny's commons area with Max's new bow and arrow and had some fun before heading home.

Mickey Magic Mini-Vacay

Pics from our long-weekend-getaway to the land of the merry mouse...












We had a beautiful trip eating dinner with Pluto and Goofy, riding Star Tours and Aerosmith (wish I had a pciture of Kinsey's face after that one) at Hollywood, playing pirate at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, and watching Illuminations after a great day at Epcot.

FINALS WEEKEND!






This was the last show weekend of the season and the setting was just about perfect! Kinsey, Nanny, and I spent the weekend in Conyers at the International Horse Park--location of the 1996 Olympic Equestrian events. Two days of showing, a big chili cookout and a gals night out pizza party were some of the highlights of the weekend. Kinsey did GREAT and got Reserve Champion both days of showing, finishing her show year as second overall in the points standing for which she will be recognized at a banquet this winter. We are so proud of our little horse girl and all of her friends and excited to see what next year will bring!

Go Owls!









Max's first game of the season was a big success (even if his school day might not have been--but we'll leave that off the blog.) He had two solid hits and a really fun time. Post game snacks were a bonus, too! Way to go Big Max!

Fall Favorites

This weekend marked the first of my favorite month of the year. And what a way to ring in October!

The Pitmans came down for a visit this weekend and we had lots of fun cousin time. Saturday morning, Kinsey had the last of her regular season horse shows. She did great again and ended up Champion of her division again and had a good show in the junior/adult beginner division as well.





Then it was off for some Bulldog action at Sanford Stadium sans kiddos. The Dawgs played a great game and made it worth out while and the weather could not have been more perfect.




After the game, we swung by the house and got the kids dressed in their orange and black and headed to the pumpkin patch for a perfect evening of farm fall fun. The kids had such a good time on the hay ride, cow train, jumping pillow, petting zoo, and corn maze. They were all sad to say goodbye, but we were all exhausted to the core!















Warm, wonderful memories were definitely made this gorgeous, chilly weekend!
